We're out in the far east on our hols at the moment, very much enjoying the company and great food. Today I took a day trip into Singapore from Johor bahru, mainly to buy a new watch, but whilst there, couldn't resist a trip to the Adelphi for a few hours.
Most was usual stuff, but I couldn't resist a good listen to both some avant-garde duos and a full on linn climax ds system. Shame that neither really impressed me. So, just about to leave the place and see the line on a shop window of "best system in the world". Once I'd stopped chuckling at how pretentious that line was, had to investigate. It certainly wasn't using the "speakers that cannot be named on a forum". Simply fabulous. A wall to wall speaker system, with I believe around 9 drivers per unit, the mid and high end being horned. More of a pa system than stereo, and the closest I've ever heard to the band being in the room.
